Differential Diagnosis of Fulminant Myocarditis and Acute Coronary Syndromes in the Case of Failure of Coronary Angiography: A Case Report

Fulminant myocarditis (FM) is a severe disease with a rapidly progressive and life-threatening course caused mainly by viral infection. The symptoms, laboratory findings, and presence of ECG changes resemble acute coronary syndrome. Therefore, coronary angiography is usually helpful in making the ap...
